One mom had three boys. Her youngest was St. Patrick. She made the costume from adult sized green t-shirt and used glitter glue to make a cross on the front and back so it looked like a vestment. She made him a bishop's mitre out of cardboard with a gold cross on it.
The best part (if you are a 2.5 year old boy) was the green snake he got to carry.
Her other son had a Franciscan robe on. When I first saw it, I assumed he was St. Francis. DH asked me, "Why does he have a cell phone?!"
Then we noticed the keys...I'm thinking "St. Peter, maybe?"
Then DH realized...it wasn't a cell phone. It was a TV remote, keys, a wallet and eye glasses attached to the robe.
He was St. Anthony, finding lost items!!!!
Ingenious!
Love it! Saint Anthony must be the hardest working Saint?
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love it. Especially St. Anthony -- that IS ingenious.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that great?!?
ReplyDeleteThat's adoreable. My daughter was out of school Monday for All Saints Day and since it was a Monday it wasn't a holy day of obligation. My parish just had the usual 9 am mass in the chapel.
ReplyDeleteOur pastor had the kids dress up last Sunday at the 11:00 Mass.
ReplyDeleteLOL! That is too cute! Such a creative kid...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this.
